Modular resurgence of topological string

Topological string free energy has a rich collection of non-perturbative contributions which are labeled by D-brane charge vectors, and the associated Stokes constants are conjectured to coincide with BPS or DT invariants, i.e. D-brane multiplicities. In this paper, we provide additional evidence to this conjecture by studying modular properties of non-perturbative contributions. We argue using resurgence theory that non-perturbative contributions form orbits of local monodromy group induced by singular points inside a stability chamber, and that the associated Stokes constants must be the same across the orbits. In some examples, this allows generation of infinitely many Stokes constants, which reproduce the entire BPS spectrum. In addition, following [DK26], we also show that generators of Stokes transformations of non-holomorphic partition function satisfy Lie brackets of the Kontsevich-Soibelman Lie algebra, making it possible to identify the global Stokes transformation with the Kontsevich-Soibelman wall-crossing invariant.

Resurgent Wilson loops in refined topological string

We study the resurgent structures of Wilson loops in refined topological string theory. We argue that the Borel singularities should be integral periods, and that the associated Stokes constants are refined Donaldson-Thomas invariants, just like the free energies, except that the Borel singularities cannot be local flat coordinates. We also solve the non-perturbative series in closed form from the holomorphic anomaly equations for the refined Wilson loops. We illustrate these results with the examples of local P^2 and local P^1 x P^1.
